  Right! Shows me it was more about a rebuke of the Republicans than purely them having really weak candidates. I dont like abots policy at all, but he has a strong political machine and wasnt as divisive as Bo or Paxton, so these results indicate to me that people as a whole were just fed up with the Rs

  I get you. It’s a semantics game to some extent. For someone who may have been raised in a very polarized environment, just saying I’m going to hear both sides out may be a courageous move. I don’t want to shame someone for being open.

  The fact he’s being replaced by a woman who is also Latina had me falling on the fainting couch honestly. I never thought Texas could ever get their fucking shit together enough to do that.

  Tech workers and tech bros aren't the same. Tech workers are actually mostly deep blue, but there is also a subset that are libertarian and that is where the tech bros are.

  “Tonight we defeated Goliath. All the money in the world is no match for the people of Texas.” What makes this win even more satisfying is the sheer amount of cash Elon dropped into the race against James Talarico and he still won in a landslide. Maybe people are waking up? https://www. theguardian.com/us-news/2026/n…

  I agree. He’s gotten away with so much nonsense for so long and Texans are tired of it. He’s gone next election especially if people keep the America first mindset.

  🚨🇺🇸 The Texas Senate race is now the MOST expensive Senate race in U.S. history! $500M+ has been spent. The latest NYT/Siena poll has Talarico edging out Ken Paxton 50-43%... a big gap for the GOP to overcome. But Republicans have held this seat for 56 years! If they lose it

  I really have a lot of work to do, but I can't stop watching Texas. Somebody said Austin "sounds like an Eastern European city that just overthrew a dictator." Pretty sure I could hear my sister screaming in her front yard. https://www. euronews.com/video/2026/11/04/ us-midterm-elections-cheers-erupt-as-talaricos-texas-victory-is-projected

  Soo... The movie Civil War was about California and Texas rebelling together to overthrow Washington DC right? They chose it to make it unrealistic. I guess...
